Dear Newsgroup ~
Complete Peerage 8 (1932): 562 565 (sub Mauley) has a good account of the life of Sir Peter de Mauley styled "the Fourth," 2nd Lord Mauley. Regarding his date of death, the following information is provided:
"He probably died soon after 23 May 1348." END OF QUOTE.
In footnote i on page 565, the following information is added:
"No reference to him is found after this date. The grant of the manors to his son in 1332 may have made any inquisition after his death unnecessary." END OF QUOTE.
No documentation is provided for the date 23 May 1348, but it is evidently derived from a record found in the published Patent Rolls:
On 23 May 1348, as “Peter de Mauleye le quart,” he had license to enfeoff Robert de Mauley, Knt. of the manors of Hexthorpe, Balby, and Rossington, Yorkshire, together with the church of Rossington, Yorkshire, to be held in chief. Reference: Cal. of Patent Rolls, 1348–1350 (1905): 99.
We see here that Sir Peter de Mauley was living 23 May 1348 alright. However, Complete Peerage is wrong to state that there is no further reference to him after this date.
My research indicates that Peter de Mauley styled "the Fourth" was living as late as Hilary 1353, as proven by two Common Pleas lawsuits of that term:
1. In Hilary term 1353, as “Peter de Mauley le Quart,” he sued Richard de Storburgh, of Pickering, and John Halman, of Hoton, in the Court of Common Pleas regarding a reasonable account of the time they were his bailiffs in Coxwold and Pickering, Yorkshire, and his receivers of money.

2. In Hilary term 1353 as “Peter de Mauley le Quart,” he sued Robert de Storburgh, of Beverley, Yorkshire, butcher in the Court of Common Pleas regarding a reasonable account of the time he was his receiver of money.

In summary, the above two records prove that Sir Peter de Mauley styled "the Fourth," 2nd Lord Mauley, was living as late as Hilary term 1353.
